The Inevitably Tubular
Okay, it's day five of the leftover Turkey challenge. I was trying to avoid the inevitable, but there's a reason that they call it that; it's inevitable. You're probably thinking I'm talking about some form of turkey soup, but my stock was not particularly delicious, so I passed on that idea. No, I'm talking about Turkey Noodle Casserole.
Insert meat here casserole is one of the definitive American classics in my mind. When you have leftover turkey, it just happens to be a turkey noodle casserole. I'm not going to lie, this is basically Pot Pie filling baked with noodles and cheese, but that's really great. Shannon repelled the idea because I put little green monsters in it (peas) and she's totally sick of turkey at this point, having it for breakfast, lunch and dinner for almost a week. Thankfully, there's maybe one more day of this madness.
I like how tube pasta has the ability to fill up with sauce, but of course you can use any sort of noodle that you like. You could omit the noodles entirely, but then I suggest not calling it turkey noodle casserole. I mean, use your noodle, that doesn't make a whole lot of sense.
